Some guy is selling this close by me. But I can't tell what it is! Can you?
I'm thinking Double Dragon 2.
I asked about his game room and he sends me pictures with no information. bastard.

EDIT:forgot the link!

I can't make out what it is but that sure looks like a gun mounted on the front there, so I don't think it's Double Dragon 2.

EDIT: Looks like the Operation Wolf controller but that doesn't look like an OW marquee.

then explain to me why the marquee on that game looks exactly like the one from the KLOV entry?

it's most likely an Operation Wolf cabinet converted to Mechanized Attack by somebody that didn't realize the game was for 2 players.

My first vote was also gonna be Mechanized Attack -- but it could also be a conversion the other way - Mech Attack to Op Wolf.

Regardless, I'd pass on it without seeing it in person, looks to be a bad conversion by whomever did it.

I dunno about that, it does look more like an Operation Wolf cabinet originally, it'd be pretty bizarre if it was converted to Mechanized Attack and then back to Operation Wolf, but then the marquee was never replaced.

Yes, it'd be better to see a picture of the game actually powered on.

He finally emailed me.
Mechanized Attack and asking 250.00 for it. I'll consider for 150! KLOV showed it being a two player game while OW is a one player game. I'll find out tomorrow.

I actually have this Mechanized Attack game... My cabinet actually looks exactly like the one you have pictured - Single player. In my "younger" years, I recall playing this game 2 player with my cousin @ Aladdin's Castle. Therefore, I've been wondering if this game was ever put out as single player...

I know the Operation Wolf cabs that I've seen typically have a different shape in the front than the Mechanized Attack you have pictured (I have an empty OW cab sitting under my car port now that I'm selling on eBay). I think the OW cab has 120 degree angles in the front, and doesn't extend all the way to the floor. Instead, there's a drawer at the bottom - probably where the PCB or power supply sits. Conversely, that particular Mechanized Attack cab has 90 degree angles on the front, that extend all the way to the floor. It makes me think the differently designed cabs were for different games, but I could be wrong. Does anyone have more info on this?

I wish I had some pics to back up what I'm trying to explain... I can try to get some pics in the next couple of days if anyone is interested.

I couldn't agree more...

Dcescott, I took a few pics today per your request. I actually acquired a bunch of cabinets just recently - this being one of them. :)
